Traitor
The next morning. At nine o'clock, the bamboo ladder was lowered into the cave, and the orderly called from above,"Fatty Zhu, come up."
"What are you doing up here?" Zhu 'er asked in a trembling voice. I'm not going up. If you want to go up, we'll go up together."
"I have something good to do. I'll take you to Meng Xiu to play. If you don't come up, I'll leave."
"Wait, wait, are you going to let me go? Alright, alright, alright. I'll come up." He hurriedly climbed up.
"Meng Xiu, why are they bringing him to Meng Xiu? Are we really going to let him go?" Zhao Yijing asked.
"Who knows?" I said.
At noon, a bamboo basket containing a large bowl of porridge and mineral water was placed down. Without chopsticks, the three of them could only take turns drinking. Looking at the mineral water bottle, it was a spring from Yunnan. They probably searched us.
There was no toilet, so they had to settle their urine and feces on the spot. It was even more smelly, a true hell.
The three of them anxiously waited for Zhu 'er to return, wanting to find out what was going on. However, Zhu 'er still hadn't returned by nightfall. The three of them suffered another night in hell, but they still hadn't returned by noon. The three of them thought that he had been released.
"I knew it was him.”Zhao Yijing said," This bastard. Da Bao, it was really unlucky to work with such a person.”
But at dusk, he was sent back to the dungeon.
Everyone tried their best to stay at the entrance of the prison. With the faint light from the cave entrance, Zhu 'er could be seen clearly. His face was green and full of hatred. He cursed," F * ck you, die a horrible death. You'll be killed. I'll f * ck your entire family…" It was full of vulgarities.
"What did they ask you to do?" Zhao Yijing asked.
" They... This bastard is really not human..."
"Did you go to Mengxiu?"
" Hmph, he went, but he didn't keep his word. He…"
"Who is he? What did he say?"
Zhu 'er closed her eyes. We'll know tomorrow."
This guy must be hiding something from us. Look at how he's stammering. Cleto wanted to attack, but I stopped him.
The next morning. A series of thumping sounds entered the dungeon. Krito couldn't help but shiver and say,""This is the Wooden Drum. It seems that we have to sacrifice the grain today.”
After a while, the orderly came and shouted,"Come on up. You guys are in for a good thing today. Hurry up!"
Then, he put down the bamboo ladder.
"Tell us if there's anything good. Otherwise, we won't come up.”Zhao Yijing said.
The orderly was stunned for a moment before he laughed."The underground hotel is easy to stay in, isn't it? It's very comfortable to be warm in winter and cool in summer. You're used to living here and don't want to come up, right? Then I won't force you. You can stay here for a few more days. I'm leaving." He left just like that and really disappeared.
The days spent in the prison felt like years. He had long been looking forward to going up to take a few breaths of fresh air. I shouted,"Don't go, don't go." Orderly, come back."
The orderly's face reappeared in the hole."Da Bao, you're willing to come up, right? Come out. If they aren't willing, we won't force them."
"Everyone, go up." I said," Even if I die, I'll die a tough death. I can't stay in this cave. I'm dizzy from the smell. I'll die quickly!”He climbed up as he spoke.
They all followed me out of the dungeon.
We were escorted to the open space in front of the wooden drum house. He saw that there were Wa people everywhere. Our horses were tied to a tree. Under the tree, people and horses were sitting together. They sat on bamboo chairs with bananas, pears, and other fruits in front of them. There was also a burlap sack beside him, but he did not know what it contained. More than 20 armed men surrounded them. All the Wa men were carrying long Burmese sabers. The women all had bamboo smoke pots in their mouths. There was a pungent smell of spicy smoke.
We were brought before the head. The leader was wearing black clothes and black pants, and his head was wrapped in a red bun. The person next to him was probably someone like Moba.
Seeing Ma Shucai, Zhu 'er shouted,"Ma Shen, you can't go back on your word. Let us go quickly."”
"I can't. Moba has taken a fancy to you. Who asked you to grow a big beard. You don't know, the longer the beard and hair, the better. Moba said that this had something to do with Gu Zi growing tall and strong.”Ma Shucai laughed.
"This is simply, simply nonsense. Ma Shen, for the sake of our relationship. Tell Moba that the beard has nothing to do with the grain. This is bullsh * t pulling the horse's leg. How can this be?”
"I can't say anymore. If you want to blame someone, blame your parents. Besides, it's your fortune that they chose you. You are to be the human head god, and every family will take turns to worship you. Then, you will be worshipped in the wooden drum house, and then sent to the Ghost Forest to be worshipped forever. What's wrong with being very glorious?"
"You motherf * cker. You bastard." Zhu 'er started scolding," You liar. I can't understand how your father would come to sunrise a bastard like you. I'll crush you even if I turn into a ghost. Just you wait!……”His face was twisted and his goldfish eyes were red. He glared at Ma Shucai as if he wanted to eat him up.
Ma Shucai smiled,"You're the real liar and scoundrel." Do you dare to tell Da Bao and the others what you went to Mengxiu for?”
"You, you…you f * cking bastard!”Zhu 'er scolded.
"You don't dare to say, right? Then I'll say it for you." Ma Shucai looked at me and smiled." Da Bao, we Chinese are good at fighting among ourselves. Your company is no exception. Didn't you guys dig up an orchid? Fatty Zhu was jealous and wanted me to snatch the orchids. He was in charge of monitoring and reporting, so he asked me to give him 50,000 yuan. Sigh, that was really a good orchid. Unfortunately, he did not manage to get it. I heard that your cousin kidnapped her. Is that true? You're too kind, little brother. Do you think that just because you're a relative, you won't cheat you?
"After the orchid incident, I didn't want to bother with you guys. Cats had their own paths, and the oyster had its own path. I didn't expect that our fate wasn't over yet, and you guys actually started a jade business. When you arrived at Yishui Stronghold, the people from Jinshui Stronghold saw you. He was hiding in the woods and eavesdropping on your conversation. He said that there were three other Han people in addition to Kelite, and one of them was called Da Bao. After listening to his description, I guessed that it was you. I wanted to invite you to the stockade to ask why you were here and if you were here to take revenge on me. But you guys actually disappeared. But God has eyes and allowed the orderly to meet you in Mengxiu. This is really God's will. What was even more amazing was that after meeting the orderly in the restaurant, Fatty Zhu had bad intentions again. He found the orderly and gave him 500,000 yuan, saying that he would exchange it for a jade worth two million yuan. The orderly asked him to listen to the echo the next day. I was also in Mengxiu at that time. After the orderly told me, I followed his instructions and found the jade shop owner who cut the stone. I know that you do have a piece of jade, but its value is not two million. It's much higher, at least five million. Hence, he met him personally and gave him 500,000 yuan. He then told Da Bao that the jade was in his hands and that they would be returning to the mining company tomorrow. We rushed back to the Golden Water Stronghold on the same day and set up an ambush on the road. We finally got the jade.”
Ma Shucai laughed." This is a rare treasure. It's priceless. Five million is just an estimate." I have a question. Fatty Zhu doesn't know what's good for him, but don't you know what's good for you? Fatty Zhu was greedy for the 500,000 yuan and was very cunning. He buried the money under a tree in Meng Xiu, afraid that I would take it back. The day before yesterday, he was escorted to Mengxiu to withdraw money. I told him that if he didn't return the money to me, I would sacrifice his head to the grain. He could only listen obediently. He didn't even think about it. His head was about to fall to the ground. How could he bury the 500,000 yuan underground and let it rot?”
Khritor pounced at Zhu 'er. It took the Wa men a lot of effort to pull it apart. The headman said a few words in a gibberish. The Wa men pressed Ke Li Tuo Pu and Zhu 'er down and tied up their feet and hands. The two of them could only sit on the ground.
Zhao Yijing looked at Zhu 'er hatefully and scolded,""You bastard, you can't do anything, but you're good at ruining things. I knew you would cause us trouble, but I didn't expect it to be this kind of trouble. If we don't become jade, even our lives will be ruined in your hands, you bastard!”
Zhu 'er flipped her goldfish eyes and looked at Zhao Yijing, saying,""Is it all my fault? You didn't do anything wrong? Didn't you lie to me that the jade was only worth a million at most? If I knew it was worth five million, would I have been greedy for five hundred thousand? Didn't I risk my life to come to this godforsaken place just to earn a few coins? I've been fired from the unit. I have no source of income, but I have a wife and son. Without money, how can I support them? Besides, I don't want to harm you. I told Ma Shucai not to hurt anyone. Ma Shen, we agreed that after you get the jade, you have to let us go and not hurt anyone. Isn't that so?"
"Yes, I originally wanted to let you go, but unfortunately, the headman took a fancy to your beard. There was also Cleto. He had taken the head of the Goldwater Stronghold, so of course they would not let him off. He attacked Yishui Stronghold because of Kelitu and helped me snatch yours.”
So that was how things were. It was a sigh. I looked at Zhu 'er with mixed feelings. What he said wasn't wrong. If he had nothing to do with Autumn Goose's death, he wouldn't have to die.
" Ma Shen," I said," things have come to this. We have nothing to say. I only have one question for you. Please tell me, how did Lin Yanqiu die?”
"You might not believe me if I tell you. Lin Yanqiu's death had nothing to do with me. Ever since the orchid incident, I sold the tunnel and the ore processing plant and switched to the jade business. I only found out about her death later. It was probably Battalion Commander Gao's doing, but this is just a guess.”
I looked at Zhu 'er,"I'll ask you again. Do you know how Autumn Goose died?"”
Zhu 'er cried out,"Da Bao, I really don't know. I'm not lying to you." We're all going to die. There's no need to hide anything. It must be that Battalion Commander."
"Alright, I believe you." I burst into laughter. I was overwhelmed with all kinds of feelings and despair. I shouted in grief and indignation," I didn't expect that I would die in such a strange way in this foreign country! Ma Shucai, you son of a b * tch, you are the expert at internal strife. He's really black-hearted, thick-skinned, and extremely shameless…"
I suddenly jumped to Ma Shucai's side and punched his temple with my left fist. He moved quickly and tilted his head to dodge. However, my punch was fake. My right fist landed on his stomach. He let out an " Aiyo " and squatted on the ground. A few men jumped up, hugged me, and pressed me to the ground.
"Damn it, just you wait. When I get to the netherworld, I'll also pinch you to death. If you want your head, hurry up. I can't wait.”I cursed.
Zhao Yijing and I were tied up.
The thumping sound of the Wooden Drum made one's heart skip a beat. A large wooden block was carried to the open space. It was covered in blood and knife marks. It was unknown how many heads had been chopped off.
The four of them didn't speak anymore. They knew that it was useless to say anything, so they closed their eyes and waited for death.
